Took the survey, answered how I truly felt the reduction in quota would impact my spending for charters, personal boat trips out and the businesses in the communities involved. I have an issue though with question #23.... Why the hell would i want to pay for a permit to catch smaller fish that what is being proposed at 19 inches and 3 fish? Why is that even being suggested?

How will paying for a permit to catch the current size fish help to meet a ridiculously calculated quota that they want to reduce??? IMO, this is a lead in to paying for fishing or licensing as required in other states....my .02
